Issue:
I have a flash movie that runs as a standalone player on a Demo CD... I also have an install msi file(same as an exe) that when the user is done viewing the flash movie they can click on a menu button in the flash movie that executes the msi or exe located on the root of the CD which starts the install process.

Question: What is the action script (FOR FLASH 8) that i apply to the button that will initiate or call the MSI or exe install file.

Anyhelp would be great... even a link to an example... or anything... thanks

Note: I've been told to use fscommand() but i just can't get the syntax right that would execute an msi or exe file on the root of the CD.
